Vistaprint Agrees to Acquire Webs Inc. for $117.5 Million

This acquisition combines Vistaprint’s strengths in marketing, geographic reach, service operations, manufacturing, and capabilities development with Webs’ agile approach to product development that delivers innovative, customer-focused online marketing solutions.

“We are thrilled about joining the Vistaprint family, as the synergies between our two companies could not be more clear,” said Webs CEO Haroon Mokhtarzada. “Our companies share a common vision for the future of micro business marketing, and bring complementary products and competencies to the table.

“We believe Webs will flourish as a part of Vistaprint, providing significant value to both our customers and our employees. Together, we imagine a future in which a micro business will market itself through seamlessly integrated digital and physical marketing media with significant cross-over potential. The business opportunity for us as the market continues to evolve is incredibly compelling and exciting,” Mokhtarzada continued.
